    We started our morning at 52*. At 330 after a southern front came through we were at 74*. Now the cold front came back through around 5pm and at bedtime it is in the 30s. No wonder we are all sick.

    Nothing new in NJ. 60 plus today. 16° in the morning Saturday. Sorry....old joke. Not happy with the weather here in NJ. Wait a half hour. Looks like it's becoming a joke in every state. Don't believe in global warming. Well it's happening. Extreme weather changes is part of it. Just sayin....

    Sorry I went off topic.

    Finally some weather I can work with. It was 34° so I finally got these installed.

    Tactic HD tailgate hinge and Teraflex spare tire relocation kit, which consists of the plate with studs and 3 bolts. It basically just moves your spare up an inch and a half. It got my spare off the bumper.

    Edit. Wow....noticed a difference right off the bat. Opened and closed several times now. And I noticed it "sounds" much more solid. Time will tell how it holds up. And based on the hinges I took off. Good move on my part. :thumbsup:. Lol Lol.

    L0'0'KING G00D! Looks like the Tactik/TF combo works for you. Did the Tactik kit not have the range in adjustment for your setup?

    Up to 37s. And I'm running 35s. After that. You should look into other hinge kits / bumper kits. Trying to keep it cheap, reliable, and strong. Cheap being the key word there. Lolll. I like it. Heavy duty military grade steel. Easy install. Nice bling. Don't foresee any future issues with this set up. Some times more expensive doesn't mean better. Just means more expensive. Lolll.

    Temps in the low 50s. Sweet. Since upgrading tires. I decided to upgrade the track bars too. Other upgrades coming. But stated with these TeraFlex HD Monster track bars. Hard to tell from the photos. But these bars are heavier, beefier, and much more stable than the stock sized adjustable track bars i was using.

    Noticed the difference the first pot hole filled in road. Much more stable solid feeling ride. Dont feel the bumps in the steering wheel as much. And I like the fact they have an adjustable collar. If I decide to jump up in lift. I don't have to take it off to adjust for the lift. Good up to 6 inches.

    Yeah, as soon as I lifted, I threw those on with the lift, so I didn't get to see what a lifted jeep with an OEM bar rode. Read all the other regrets of not getting one, so I said "Screw it....Do it once".
